Re: 70's SCORPIONS!!!

Unfortunately it is true, they are calling it quits.. Here is the announcement on their web site
http://www.the-scorpions.com/english/news/news_item.asp?NewsID=100

BUT, how many times have we heard that from other groups.

How many farewell tours have we seen from groups like this in the past

The Who, The Eagles, The Police, etc. even Zeppelin was announcing a come back before it fell through. It would be nice to see a Pink Floyd reunion although I doubt it would ever happen. (Their keyboardist is gone though).. It's vocalists and guitarists which are the hardest to replace to get that original sound.

Re: 70's SCORPIONS!!!

Can you remember hearing a track on the radio that just makes you go NUMB ? [ In a good way that is !!] Well that track was "Evening wind "- SCORPIONS what a moody mesmorising chunk of PERFECTION it is even now sends shivers down my spine ! i taped it and played it endlessly That was it i was hooked ,:bow:went out and bought "in trance" and became a big fan. ULI JON ROTH is without doubt my favourite guitarist. SCORPIONS what a quality band!!!!!

Hey Lou I kind of thought you would pop up here... got to agree though a great band and they are playing plenty of gigs in europe this year I wonder if they will make it to the UK.
